re: #146 drcordell

Your arguments about whether or not the Olympics is an economic boost are completely irrelevant to the issue at hand. That is something to be considered when the host city makes the decision to run for hosting the games in the first place. Once Chicago officially was in the running, of course Obama is going to give a speech to try and get the games here.

I disagree. The financial impact is absolutely relevant. The people of Chicago seem to think so. I’m just pointing it out.
